You might want to review this. My old buddy Patrick Folkes
of Lion's Head Ontario sent me the information. Our old friend Ron (Wick) Drury
of Bying Avenue, Willowdale headed west May 5, 1958. He intended to ride his
horse to Vancouver - or at least somewhere in Alberta. I was supposed to go with
him but ran out of money - and nerve.
All went according to plan until he met a little lady in
Huntsville. The trip terminated there - the romance collapsed and he went on to
Alberta by car.
Wick never worked in a factory again. His final job was
his dream job. He took care of the team of horses at the Black Creek Pioneer
Village. He is now retired and living in Elliot Lake, Ontario.
Between the trip with the horse and retirement he had a
stint in the Canadian Army and worked for many years at a cattle company in
Carstairs, Alberta.
